Operational Training Lead
"I am applying what I have learnt in my apprenticeship to my work as Solution Delivery and Business Relations Lead in Project Optimus. From creating the problem statement and business case for the LMS to helping guide the team on process mapping the new world."
"Having the opportunity to take part in six sigma has positively impacted my ability as a project manager. Because of the qualification, I can run a project successfully and explore different ways to improve processes and make positive differences, this is visible in the two projects I am running. It has really sparked my passion for project management."
" My course is helping me build a stronger understanding of agile principles, and even at module 7 I can see how these will enhance my effectiveness in my role. I'm already more aware of how to approach work differently and can see the future value it will bring!"
"Working towards my CIPD Level 5 has significantly strengthened my understanding of the People function and enabled me to apply new ideas in practice, including shaping our company goal-setting approach. It has also deepened my understanding of organisational change, which is particuarly valuable as we navigate a transformational year."
"My studies have allowed me to improve my understanding of financial statements, allowing me to produce these for subsets of our portfolio, as well as making me more comfortable working independently with financial data sources. It has helped me take a more informed and proactive approach to data analysis and producing insight, which are key responsibilities in my role."
